More Info:

EU-only collection. An important, even inimitable, figure of early British pop and rock & roll, Joe Meek was a pioneering record producer and sound engineer who became infamous for his eccentric behavior and experimentation with instruments. Like Phil Spector, Meek also changed the landscape of music with innovative production techniques that, much more than the artists he worked with, stamped a vision of mad genius on his recordings. In Meek's case, this usually amounted to super-compressed sound, wavering sped-up vocals, ghostly backing violins and choruses, spooky echo and reverb, ticky-tack variable-speed piano, and all manners of Halloween and outer-space sound effects. This quintessential collector's edition compiles Meek's most essential and enduring work, gathering a variety of the great sides he produced between 1958 and 1962. Included here are classics like the Tornados' 'Telstar', John Leyton's 'Johnny Remember Me', Screaming Lord Sutch's 'Til the Following Night', and Cliff Bennett & the Rebel Rousers' 'Hurtin' Inside'.Also featured here are lesser-heard tracks which are just as enjoyable as the hits.
